3 Reasons Why James Comey Should Have Been Fired A Long Time Ago
James Comey, the former director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) appointed by
President Barack Obama, has never been a man independent of the law.
This is not because his heart wasn�t in the right place or because his intentions
may have been malicious.
Instead, Comey has always been a man of the state � much like any other person to have
occupied this position in history.
What does that mean?
That personal responsibility, morals, and any other ethical framework aren�t applied
if what�s at stake is the government�s hold on the narrative.
Ever since the days of J. Edgar Hoover, when the bureau became what it is now - a politicized
powerhouse where anyone and everyone is the target � presidents have relied on the FBI
as a tool, not a force for what�s right.
But calls for an �independent� bureau, headed by someone who only has the U.S. Constitution
in mind, have been popping up here and there, leading many to believe that the FBI could,
under the right leadership, be a force for good.
Unfortunately, that wish will never materialize so long as the agency is an arm of the state.
But for the sake of argument, what constitutes a �good reason� to let go of an FBI director?
And how low or how absolutely immoral can an action undertaken by said FBI director
be for a president to make the decision to fire him?
In this article, we attempt to look at instances in Comey�s career as the G-men�s boss
that should have been enough reason to let him go.
1.
He Could Have Stopped the Boston Bombers and the NY Terrorist but Let Them Go
We all know Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the brothers responsible for the
Boston Marathon bombing.
What many may not know, or not remember, is that the FBI, under the watch of none other
than Comey, interviewed Tamerlan in 2011 after the Russian Federal Security Service (FBS)
tipped off the agency about his radical beliefs.
After looking into this complaint, the FBI dismissed the Tsarnaevs.
But during a trip to Dagestan in 2012, Tamerlan frequented a mosque believed by the FBS to
be associated with radical Islamic activities.
After a second warning, the FBI again failed to keep track of the older brother and his
moves.
Ultimately, the duo produced two homemade bombs and had them detonated near the finish
line of the 2013 Boston Marathon, killing three people and injuring several hundred
others.
But the Tsarnaev brothers weren�t the only ones the FBI had the power to stop under Comey�s
watch.
Ahmad Rahami was responsible for the September 2016 bombings of New York City and nearby
towns, which injured 31 people.
His father had called the authorities two years prior to the incidents, telling them
his son was a terrorist.
After briefly interviewing him, the FBI let him go.
Two years later, Rahami attempted to kill people with three bombs and several explosive
devices.
2.
The FBI Competed with the NSA and Spied on Innocent Americans (Still, Comey Lied About
It)
After former National Security Agency (NSA) contractor Edward Snowden stepped out of the
shadows as a whistleblower, his revelations proved the NSA mass-spied on innocent Americans
without due process.
Not too long after we learned about this, it was also unveiled that the FBI conducted
its own data mining, also targeting innocent Americans.
Unfortunately, Comey wasn�t upfront about any of the then-recent discoveries.
Much like James Clapper, the former U.S. Intelligence Director who lied under oath when asked if
the NSA collected �any type of data at all on millions of Americans� � to which Clapper
said �No, sir� � Comey denied that the FBI was involved in any illegal activities.
During a 2014 speech at the Brookings Institution, Comey said:
�In the wake of the Snowden disclosures, the prevailing view is that the government
is sweeping up all of our communications.
That is not true.� 3.
FBI Demanded Apple to Create �Backdoor� to iPhones
Who can forget the bloody and tragic San Bernardino shooting?
No one.
But what many appear to have forgotten is how the FBI pressed Apple to create a �backdoor�
that would give them access not only to the two suspects� phones but also to any of
Apple�s phones.
This very public feud pitted the country�s most notorious tech companies against the
most powerful law enforcement agency in the land, sparking everybody�s fears that, perhaps,
Apple would cave.
But Apple didn�t.
Due to this alone, Apple�s CEO Tim Cook may deserve to be given a new nickname, �the
man with the balls of steel.�
If these three very important moments of irresponsibility and rights violations weren�t enough to
prompt Obama to put an end to Comey�s career as the head of the FBI, then why not let him
go now � even if over something else entirely?
